    I think it wants you to download the ipsw yourself and point it to the file by clicking extras and select the file.

    But how do I locate this folder? I can't find it.

    to find the appdata folder, you have to go to control panel/folder options/ and unhide hidden folders

    If you are on a windows machine, type %APPDATA% in the run box, and go to apple computer, itunes, software updates
